Page 24/Scene 59 - Quentin: 'I didn't sleep well last night. It's a funny thing about this place. I keep imagining things...'
comes up, followed in the script by:
ALEX What do you mean imagining things?
QUENTIN (hesitates for a moment) Oh, it's nothing. Forget it.
ALEX (laughing) No -- man. (joking) Maybe I can use it. You know, we're starting a new gothic ...
QUENTIN Oh, yeah. That reminds me ... we've got a library over there that's got to be loaded with material. Be my guest.
As Claire ENTERS with a tray of sandwiches.

End of scene.
And as far as the differences in the dialogue go, as the first part of his first line here Quentin actually says "Well, Doc, I didn't sleep well last night" - and as his second bit of dialogue, Quentin actually says "Nothing. Forget it" - and Alex actually replies to that with "No -- man. Maybe I can use it. Claire and I are starting a new gothic novel", with no laughing and not actually joking - and the "Oh, yeah" is dropped from Quentin's third bit of dialogue, and he actually says "That reminds me ... I've got a library over there that's got to be full of material. Be my guest" - and to that Alex replies with an unscripted "I'd appreciate that" - and after Quentin makes room on the coffee table for the returning Claire's tray of sandwiches, she replies with an unscripted "Thank you.".
And when it comes to the differences in the descriptions and directions, Quentin actually laughs after Alex comments on his bloodshot eyes and unsuitable pallor and before he delivers his version of today's quote - and though Quentin does indeed hesitate before he tells Alex to forget his comment about imaging things, he also smiles to further discourage Alex - and after Alex says he appreciates access to the library, he slaps Quentin on the arm - and as I already mentioned, Quentin clears room on the coffee table when Claire returns.
And when we get to the next scene, there are all sorts of notations in Grayson's script that we'll deal with next time...
